Jack Kevorkian
She made the decision that her existence had lost its meaning. And you cannot judge that.
Jack Kevorkian
If Christ can die in a barn, I think the death of a human in a van is not so bad.
Jack Kevorkian
You've gotta know what death is to know life!
Jack Kevorkian
The Supreme Court of the United States has validated the Nazi method of execution in concentration camps, starving them to death.
Jack Kevorkian
When history looks back, it will prove what I'll die knowing.
Jack Kevorkian
I always said all my life, if I wasn't born and they gave me the question, I'd say, I don't want to be born.
Jack Kevorkian
